String red, blue and white lights on your patriotic holiday tree. Blue holiday lights are not as common but they can be found if you're willing to do a little searching. If you have a Christmas tree, you may already have red and/or white lights. It's convenient that the three colors found on the flag are very common.

Buy tiny American flags and place them throughout the holiday tree. Much like the floor mats, these are incredibly easy to find at stores during the spring and early summer. You can actually stick these right into your holiday tree if the tree is thick enough. If not, use string to attach the flags to your patriotic holiday tree.
